Aloe Vera Fuerteventura

Fuerteventura is said to produce the best aloe vera in the world, which is surprising when you think that the volcanic landscape isn’t good for growing plants in general.

Aloe Vera has incredible qualities and endless uses. You can drink it, it can be used for perfume, for sun protection, to keep skin looking young, as shower gel or as shampoo.

Although it looks like a cactus, it is actually party of the Lily family, as is garlic. There are over 400 different varieties of Aloe Vera, but the variety with the magical qualities is ALOE VERA BARBADENSIS. It is happy growing in dry ground with little water, and likes lots of sunshine, making Fuerteventura a perfect place for it to flourish.

It has been used throughout the ages. Alexander the Great used it for healing wounds from battles and Cleopatra is said to have used it as a beauty cream. Christopher Columbus is said to have stocked his ships with Aloe Vera plants before returning from the Canary Islands.

We can recommend a trip to the Aloe Vera Plant, if you are planning to visit Fuerteventura. It is situated in Tiscamanita, or the Aloe Vera Information Centre in Jandia. There are also Aloe Vera plants in the Valles de Ortega.
